i copied this from a thread i started a little while back @ http
://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6005986#post6005986

ok so here's the deal, all was well with gutsy, then i decided to
install the updates available... they were downloading from the hardy
repos and am apparently running hardy , this is where the problem
starts, i rebooted and just as gdm starts, the screen goes black, mouse
cursor appears and freezes.. no movement and the animation is also
frozen, it is one of those crappy mighty mouses and the LED in the mouse
turns off, there is also no response from the keyboard either (LOCK keys
don't do anything) the screen appears to refresh once as well.

If i run recovery mode, then type gdm, it runs all well.
I had similar problems when trying to install from the hardy livecd, but that seems to freeze at random points during boot.
i am running a ga pcv2 mini itx mobo (via chipset) with openchrome video drivers installed, from what i could find so far it appears to be xorg or the kernel.

dunno if this helps but...

if anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated.
cheers in advance.

the hang also happens with 8.10 beta.
there is also no audio whilst running 7.10, wine also causes the system to hang in this version.
by my system hangs i mean the keyboard/mouse do not work at all.


thanks for your time.
PEACE.
